    Hi Guys, This problem is not related to VC++ or, MFC but it really is bothering me, thought someone can help me. In my notebook the speaker volume has become too low, I hardly can hear anything. I have maximized all the volume options in the pc including the one at the system tray, but still no result. I had installed AC3 filter a few days ago, I thought it might be because of that, so I uninstalled it, but the volume is still inaudible, using an amplifier speaker I can hear a little bit. Can anybody help? BTW, I have xp home on my pc.

    Has it always been low? Is it all audio formats, or just certain ones?

        Has the master volume been altered?

            Double-click the speaker in the icon tray. You'll have a volume for the different audio types (e.g., wav, midi, cd), and then a master volume.

                Are any of the other volumes set to minimum? What is the possibility that the speaker is busted?

                  Have you tried plugging in some headphones to see if those sound loud enough? Like David said, it may just be your speakers. Regards, Alvaro


                  Can I ask you a question?

                      Some laptops (like Dell's) have a keyboard short-cut to adjust speaker volume. If I am not mistaken, if this is turned all the way down, even with the system tray volume turned right up you will hear nothing. For example on a Dell Inspiron 1100, pressing Fn and the blue-color-coded speaker image on one of the arrow keys will raise the volume. Maybe you should check your laptop manual for a similar feature...
